Sabouraud Dextrose Bouillon is designed for the cultivation of dermatophytes, yeasts and molds. It can
also be used for sterility testing and the determination of the fungi-static activity of pharmaceutical and
cosmetical products.
This medium complies with the recommendations of the harmonized methods of EP, USP, JP for
Microbial Examination of Non-sterile Products: Microbial Enumeration Test and Tests for Specified
Microorganisms.
Mode of Action
Sabouraud-2 % Dextrose Broth is used for the cultivation and isolation of yeasts and molds as well as
the absence test for Candida albicans. The high concentration of dextrose in addition with the low pH
promotes the growth, the formation of spores (Conidia and Sporangia) as well as the formation of
pigments of yeasts and molds. On the other side, growth of bacteria is inhibited.
